Hydra-Cell 2005-108-2329 Vector Replacement Hose for Industrial Peristaltic Pump Systems
The Hydra-Cell 2005-108-2329 is the genuine OEM replacement hose designed specifically for Wanner Engineering's Vector peristaltic hose pump series. As the only component that directly contacts the pumped fluid, this hose is the heart of the Vector pump system. Built to handle the mechanical stress of continuous compression and release, it is engineered to deliver reliable performance across a wide range of demanding industrial fluid transfer applications — from abrasive mineral slurries and chemical dosing to high-viscosity food-grade materials and wastewater processing.
What sets this hose apart is its purpose-built, multi-layer construction that resists fatigue over extended service cycles, typically rated for 1,000 to 1,500 hours of continuous operation depending on application conditions. Because the Vector pump design keeps all fluid contained within this single hose — completely isolated from rollers, springs, valves, and seals — replacing it promptly and with a genuine OEM part is the most effective way to maintain pump integrity, prevent fluid contamination, and protect the surrounding pump housing. Keeping a spare Hydra-Cell 2005-108-2329 on hand is simply smart preventive maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How often should the Hydra-Cell 2005-108-2329 Vector Hose be replaced?
Under normal operating conditions, this hose is engineered to last between 1,000 and 1,500 hours of service. The actual service life depends on factors such as the chemical compatibility of the fluid being pumped, operating pressure, temperature, and the presence of solids. Monitoring for reduced flow output or irregular suction behavior can signal that hose replacement is approaching.
Q: Is this hose compatible with all Vector pump models?
The 2005-108-2329 is designed for use with Wanner Engineering's Vector peristaltic hose pump series, specifically roller-compression style models. If you are unsure whether this hose fits your specific Vector pump model, verify your pump's model number against Wanner Engineering's documentation or contact your authorized distributor before ordering.
Q: What happens if the hose is not replaced when it begins to wear?
As the hose approaches the end of its service life, compression fatigue can cause reduced volumetric displacement, inconsistent flow rates, and eventually hose cracking. If a worn hose cracks while in service, the pumped fluid — which may be corrosive, abrasive, or otherwise hazardous — can escape into the pump housing. For this reason, most installations are configured with suction lift rather than flooded suction to minimize spillage risk in the event of hose failure.
Q: Can this Vector replacement hose handle corrosive or chemically aggressive fluids?
Yes. The Vector pump hose system is specifically designed to isolate chemically aggressive, abrasive, and difficult-to-handle fluids entirely within the hose. Since the fluid never contacts the pump's internal mechanical components, the hose material selection is the critical factor in chemical compatibility. Consult Wanner Engineering's fluid compatibility data or a certified distributor to confirm suitability for your specific fluid.
Q: Does replacing this hose require special tools or pump disassembly?
The Vector hose is designed as a serviceable wear component, making replacement relatively straightforward compared to seal-based pump systems. No specialized pump head disassembly is typically required. Replacement involves removing the old hose, cleaning and lightly lubricating the exterior of the new hose, and reinstalling it within the pump housing according to Wanner Engineering's service guidelines for your specific Vector pump model.
